Terry Evans – A story about a possible sceptic – true or false?

On the first article that I wrote on my blog I told a story of the harassment I had received at the hands of the negative sceptics for many years. There I stated that this would be a never-ending story. When I write on this blog it is not just to share my thoughts and philosophy, it is to bring to the attention this issue of harassment and net-hate.

Recently Börje Peratt wrote an article, about a man called Magnus Pålsson, giving his point of view of who he considers this man to be. Should you read this article, you will realise I am the medium Börje Peratt is talking about. So I would like to give my version the of events on the evening in question when I was giving a clairvoyant demonstration in Helsingborg on November the 14, 2012.

This man Magnus Pålsson came to the event without a ticket. He was told by me that if he waited there could be a possibility of a place for him. Whilst waiting in the foyer he was behaving in a strange way. Making strange comments and asking questions that in essence could be seen to be probing in character. There were others that commented on his behaviour and also considered it to be very unusual. My suspicions were aroused when he started a discussion with me about wanting to collaborate with him in order to create a computer game based on feelings; he presented a business card, giving the name of his company “SoulEye”.

I encouraged him to expand upon his idea, but he was evasive and then I realized that this was a possible ploy. I became even more suspicious, at this conjuncture! Both myself and colleagues that were present formed the opinion that he could be a negative sceptic that had come to the demonstration with an unknown purpose. I discussed with my colleagues whether we should allow him admission. You may ask: If you believed he was a sceptic, why would you allow him entry? We wanted to see what would happen; it would give us the opportunity to see if our suspicions were founded or unfounded.

I must point out that when people come to a demonstration the norm is that seats in the front rows are quickly taken. When we came onto the scene to begin the clairvoyant demonstration there was Magnus Pålsson sitting in front of us on a seat on the front row, even though he was one of the last ones to enter.

Not even as I was sitting in front of Terry at his demonstration, could he or his spirit team sense that I was there, even though they claim that they can and do that. (An extract from the Gesusblog)

This left another question mark: Had had someone else saved him a place on the front row? What a coincidence, or was this planned?

Before we start any demonstration we inform the public that it is not allowed to record or to film. This is done to protect the rights and the privacy of those attending the demonstration. We noticed immediately that around Magnus Pålsson’s neck was hanging an I-Phone. We understood that there was a risk that he could possibly be recording, but we decided to take the risk. At a later date we were to learn that a recording had been done of this demonstration in Helsingborg and had been posted on the internet by a well-known sceptic. Again, was it coincidence or was it collaboration?

As the demonstration proceeded there were moments where Magnus Pålsson could not contain his laughter. It certainly was not laughter of appreciation, and when he laughed it was at inappropriate times.

A few days after this the well-known sceptic, who works under a pseudonym, stated that he had attended this demonstration on his blog and he said he found it almost impossible to contain himself and at times laughed out loud during the demonstration exactly as we experienced.

I found myself laughing out loud a couple of times, and people around me gave me an angry look. (An extract from the Gesusblog)

Another question mark: Was this also just coincidence?

The practice of secretly filming and recording clairvoyant demonstrations has been an on-going practice for some years, and I am just one of a number of mediums who have been targeted. I believe that this practice is cowardly especially when it is used by people who present themselves as being intelligent.

Unanswered questions

Why is it that this well-known sceptic describes his behaviour in such a way that it was identical to what I was able to observe, along with others?

I do not accuse Magnus Pålsson, I just ask him questions. I still have my suspicions and I am in no doubt about what I witnessed.

What excuse will they give when they play these adolescence games in order to slander others? What defence will they offer if they one day unwittingly cross a line and cause psychological harm, or if we think in the extreme, someone takes their own life as a result of their harassment and mobbing?

I am not saying who is guilty; I am just asking questions, because this kind of behaviour is dangerous in the extreme.

Great post like always, Terry. I re-posted it on my Facebook page with the following text:

There’s a difference between being a sceptic and being an a-hole. It’s sad how the fundamentalist ‘atheists’ prosecute us mediums, just like their religious brethren did back in the days (and still do in some parts of the world). What they all have in common is being men with a strong sense of entitlement but a very limited emotional capacity, and an extremely strong desire to implement their ideas, their crippled version of ‘reality’, on everybody, leaving no room for diversity. All we can do is to feel compassion for these people, as, to quote Jesus (even though I’m not religious in the slightest) we have to ”…forgive them, for they do not know what they do”. <3

”We can learn a great deal about ourselves from the people that annoy us most if we stay present and allow ourselves to learn the lessons that they present to us. I am grateful to the pseudo skeptics that I’ve argued with. They’ve helped me become a calmer, better person and more certain of myself. Without their help, I would be less certain about my own identity and would not have become a good thinker.”

There is a long history of skeptical dishonesty with mediums dating back to the 1800’s. Even Harry Houdini was caught cheating trying to frame a medium for fakery.

They don’t bother you if you aren’t threatening them, so you can take some pride in that. They attack me too and I’ve slowly gotten used to the endless stream of mistaken assumptions, half truths and fantasy that come out of Camp Skeptic. They are generally terrible at challenging their own beliefs.

Hallo Craig, Your words warmed my heart. the link you gave is inspiring and I am sure will be helpful to many. Please keep visiting us we need your support and the valuable contribution you have to make. Thank you Terry

Hi Terry,
I’ll check in when I can, but I’m very busy at the moment. I am currently working on the status of psychic people and parapsychology at the social level. This will take some time and effort but utimately help you and people like you get more respect. There is a lot to do.
I have some expertise in the following areas:

Characteristics of psychic people
The science of parapsychology
The nature of pseudo skepticism and parapsychology

If you have any questions about these things please feel free to inquire.
